The surname Milliken has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent. The name is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name Mac Maolagain, which means "son of the tonsured one." This suggests a possible connection to the religious practices of early Ireland.

The Mac Maolagain family was historically associated with County Down in Northern Ireland. They were known as a sept, which is a distinct branch of a larger clan. The sept system was common in Ireland, serving as a way of organizing the population based on familial and territorial connections.

Over time, the spelling of the surname evolved from Mac Maolagain to MacMilligan, and eventually to Milliken. This transformation is believed to have occurred due to Anglicization, the process of adapting Gaelic names to English pronunciation and spelling.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, many people with the surname Milliken migrated to other parts of Ireland and to other countries, including the United States. This was often due to political and economic factors, such as the English colonization of Ireland and the subsequent land confiscations. As a result, Milliken became a widespread surname.

Today, individuals with the surname Milliken can still be found in various parts of the world, maintaining their Irish heritage and contributing to the cultural diversity of their communities.
